Artspace, Pullman Arts, and Chicago Neighborhood Initiatives
recently announced that they will break ground on the Pullman
Artspace Lofts in Spring of 2018. The housing development will
be located on Langley Ave, just south of 111th St. and is a unique
combination of historic preservation and modern construction.
The Pullman Artspace Lofts will be made up of 38 affordable
apartments and 2,000 square feet of mixed-use community space,
according to the Pullman Artspace winter update on the project.
This is a rare project because it includes the construction of
a new building on an empty lot and the restoration of two historic
buildings on either side of the lot, according to the Pullman
Artspace winter update on the project.
“There are two unoccupied, historic apartment structures that
bookend the project site. Each will be renovated to feature six new
apartment homes. A newly constructed building will fill the vacant
land in between the two existing structures. This building will
house 26 apartment units, as well as an art gallery and community
space,” said Alyssa Kelley, project manager in property development
at Artspace.
The new apartments will cater to the needs of artists and
creative individuals in the Pullman community. The units are
intended to be living and working spaces where people can
comfortably create art. When the project is finished all are welcome
to apply to live in the building but priority will be given to people

involved in artistic or creative pursuits, according to Kelley.
“The project is designed to encourage and accommodate
artistic endeavors through both the design of the physical
structures and the emphasis on community. The apartment
units, which are approximately 150 square feet larger than
comparable units and feature open, flexible floor plans, are
designed to be live-work spaces for residents. They also feature
durable materials, high ceilings, large windows, and open
layouts,” said Kelley.
Pullman is a historical community and it has been
important to everyone involved that the Pullman Artspace
Lofts honor that history.
“Extensive efforts have been taken since the earliest days of
the project’s development to ensure that both the rehabilitation
of the existing buildings and the newly constructed building
respect the unique and historic nature of the built environment
in the Pullman neighborhood and the neighborhood’s status as
a National Monument,” said Kelley.
The project has received Part II approval from U.S.
Department of the Interior and National Park Service. It has
also received approval from City of Chicago’s Department of
Planning & Development, the City of Chicago’s Committee
on Zoning, Landmarks, and Building Standards, and the
Commission on Chicago’s Landmarks, according to the
Pullman Artspace winter update on the project.

Red Nose Day Returns to NBC

NEW YORK – – It was recently announced that Red
Nose Day, the national fundraising campaign to end
child poverty, will return to NBC with a night of special
primetime programming on Thursday, May 24, 2018.
The campaign’s iconic “Red Noses” will once again be
available exclusively at Walgreens stores around the
country. In addition to the support of the official retail and
broadcast partners, the charity is proud to once again be
working with national partners Mars Wrigley Confectionery
with M&M’S® and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation
to change the lives of millions of children, one nose at a
time. Red Nose Day is run by the nonprofit Comic Relief
USA, which harnesses the power of entertainment to drive
positive change.
Money raised through the Red Nose Day campaign has
supported programs in all 50 U.S. states, Puerto Rico, and
34 countries internationally. It has helped to fund numerous
programs to ensure that children in need are safe, healthy
and educated, which includes providing more than 32
million meals for hungry American children.

CHICAGO—Seventeen counties in Illinois are getting a share
of $2.7 million to serve children who are victims of violence.
Illinois Criminal Justice Information Authority (ICJIA)
Executive Director John Maki announced the grant awards
recently.
The money will help fund organizations whose advocates
are trained in trauma-informed practices and offer
emotional support to those who have been victimized.
“We know that less than 10-percent of children who
are victims of violent crimes, such as rape, robbery, or
aggravated assault, get the emotional support they need,”
Maki said.

Election 2018:

Another Stop on the
Chisholm Trail?
By Kelly Dittmar and Glynda Carr
Fifty years ago, Shirley Chisholm campaigned successfully to become
the first Black woman in the U.S. Congress. Four years later, she
became the first woman of color and the first African American to win
delegate votes at a major party presidential convention. Throughout her
presidential campaign, she attracted voters to the “Chisholm Trail” with
her motto and reputation of being “unbought and unbossed.”
But Chisholm’s trailblazing didn’t end with her presidential defeat. She
served in Congress for another decade and left a legacy with lasting
effects to this day.
The 2018 elections will mark another stop on the Chisholm Trail, where
Black women are poised to build on Chisholm’s legacy of leadership,
determination, and desire to disrupt the status quo. Amidst reports of
the “surge” of women running in 2018 are Black women candidates at
every level, including some with the
potential to make history. Perhaps
most notably, 2018 could see the
election of the first Black woman
governor in the United States.
The potential to harness and
expand Black women’s political
power is not limited to candidates
this year. Black women voted at
the highest rates of any race and
gender group in both the 2008
and 2012 presidential elections, and
again in the 2017 special U.S. Senate
election in Alabama. If that race
is any guide, Black women voters
appear mobilized to turn out in high
numbers again in 2018.
But before we can measure progress
Shirley Chisholm
for Black women in election 2018, we
need to take stock of Black women’s current political power. That’s why
the Center for American Women and Politics (CAWP) and the Higher
Heights Leadership Fund teamed up again to release “The Chisholm
Effect: Black Women in American Politics 2018.”
The report outlines the status of Black women in American politics
today. Despite being 7.3% of the U.S. population, Black women are
less than 5% of officeholders elected to statewide executive offices,
Congress, and state legislatures. Black women are 5 of the mayors in the
nation’s top 100 most populous cities.
Since Chisholm served as the sole Black woman in Congress, 38 Black
women have served in Congress from 16 states, including 2 Black women
senators. Over the same half-century, 12 Black women have been elected
to statewide executive office. These numbers are small when considered
within the a 50-year context, but the pace of advancement in recent
years marks momentum to build upon.
Ten of the 12 Black women who have served in statewide elected
executive office have held office in the past two decades. In 1990, just
one Black woman served in Congress; 18 years later, that number is up
to 19. In just the last 5 years, 8 Black women have been elected mayor
in the 100 most populous cities in the U.S. And just this year, Sheila
Oliver became the first Democratic Black woman lieutenant governor
nationwide.
This momentum will only continue - and increase - with work. Black
women are doing the work every day to engage their communities in
the political process, to make their own voices heard, and to take their
seats at the tables of governance. Organizations like Higher Heights are
working to amplify those voices and hold political leaders accountable
for inclusion. And, with Higher Heights, CAWP is continuing to conduct
research and programs that both identify and tackle barriers to Black
women’s political progress.
But the work doesn’t stop with us. Recognizing the imperative of
Black women’s political inclusion is a responsibility we all share. When
Chisholm was campaigning amidst war, social unrest, and crises of
leadership, she argued, “At present, our country needs women’s idealism
and determination, perhaps more in politics than anywhere else.”
Those words ring especially true today, as our country confronts
significant challenges at home and abroad. In this moment, the
opportunities for meeting this demand while increasing Black women’s
political power, especially in elected office, are great. And we’ve got
some guidance on how to do it in 2018: follow the Chisholm Trail.
Kelly Dittmar is an Assistant Professor of Political Science and CAWP
Scholar, and Glynda Carr is co-founder of Higher Heights for America.

Malcolm X College recently received LEED Gold Certification from the U. S. Green Building Council. Some of its sustainable
features include LED lighting, a rainwater irrigation system, and a green roof (pictured) where students can meet for class.

Malcolm X College recently received LEED Gold
Certification from the U. S. Green Building Council
for its successful efforts to make the new building,
opened in Jan. of 2016, a sustainable addition to the
community.
Leadership in Energy and Environmental
Design (LEED) is a certification program that
provides independent verification of a building’s
green features. The program encourages the design,
construction, operation, and maintenance of
resource-efficient, high-performing, healthy, costeffective buildings. LEED is the most widely used
green building rating system in the world, according
to the U.S. Green Building Council.
“We are always looking for ways to impact the
community in a positive way. We are a community
college, that’s what we do. There was a desire to
ensure that we were building a building that was not
only functional, but was a beacon for the community
that incorporates the best practices and sustaining
energy is one of those best practices,” said David
Sanders, Malcolm X College interim president.
Buildings applying for LEED certification are
evaluated and receive points based on nine basic areas
of sustainability. The nine areas include integrative
process, location and transportation, sustainable sites,
water efficiency, energy and atmosphere, materials
and resources, indoor environmental quality,
innovation regional priority, according to the
U.S. Green Building Council.
With so many areas of sustainability to choose
from, the college wanted to make sure that what they
implemented was not only financially feasible, but
also provided functionality, according to Sanders.
A major feature of the new building is a green
roof that covers 25 percent of the building. The green

www.thechicagocitizen.com

roof is a functional area that serves as an academic
space and is home to several indigenous species of
plants from the region, according to Sanders.
“We have had many courses that have held a
class on the green roof. There is an area that is set
for planting items that would be utilized in our
biology and chemistry classes like aloe vera, acai, and
things like. It gives students the opportunity to work
with real plants and biological systems within their
courses,” said Sanders.
It was important during the design of this
building to make sure that there was a balance
between functionality and energy efficiency, according
to Sanders.
“One of the biggest things we did was
incorporate a rainwater harvesting system which
is one of the first ones in the state and was actually
certified by the state of Illinois. We are using
rainwater in our irrigation systems which is an
absolutely wonderful and sustainable feature of the
building,” said Sanders.
There is also a one hundred percent on-site
stormwater system at the college, according to
Sanders.
“We basically have built some underground canals
that carry water around the building to prevent flooding
and to get it into the sewer system in a slower way. It allows
the water to trickle down into the system rather than hit
the system immediately which would potentially over flood
the system and cause flooding within the building,” said
Sanders.
The building also features LED lighting with lighting
control systems that automatically turn the lights off
when no one is in the room and reflective roofing that
reduces solar heat which increases overall energy efficiency,
according to Sanders.
All of these features led to Malcolm X College receiving
Gold, the second highest LEED certification.

MBK Communities Background
Through the My Brother’s Keeper
Community Challenge, launched by President
Obama in 2014, nearly 250 communities in
all 50 states, Puerto Rico and the District
of Columbia accepted the call to action to
adopt innovative approaches, strengthen
supports, and build ladders of opportunity
for boys and young men of color and other
underserved youth. The Challenge called for
local public and private leaders to convene
their communities and youth to develop a local
action plan, which would include concrete
goals, a protocol for tracking data, benchmarks
for tracking progress, and available resources
to support communities’ efforts. Since
launching, communities have formed local
task forces, hired staff and made strides
on complex challenges, including mentor
deficits, school discipline reform, literacy and
youth/law enforcement relationships. Some
states, including New York and Michigan,
have formed statewide MBK Community
Challenge alliances, providing financial and
in-kindresources.

(BPT) - Recent research is giving the 86 percent of Americans
who sit all day at their jobs new reasons to reach for a handful
of nuts while at work, and in particular, pistachios. Adding to
an increasing volume of research around the health benefits of
pistachios, one study and a national survey in the U.S. suggest a
snack of pistachios might boost brain power and concentration
levels at work.
Pistachios helped office workers stay focused until lunchtime
In a national survey, 1,000 American office workers who
skipped breakfast consumed a snack of 42 grams (1 and 1/2 serving
size) of pistachios between 9 and 11 a.m. Ninety-two percent of
the participants said they are “distracted from their tasks at work
due to hunger before lunch.” Eighty percent said they usually get
hungry in the mornings before lunch and think about food often or
every day.
The midmorning snack of pistachios proved to be just what
they needed to power through the morning. Ninety-two percent of
the participants reported the pistachio snack helped improve their
concentration at work as stated in the study, “somewhat or greatly.”
That’s not surprising, according to Dr. Mike Roussell, nutrition
expert and adviser. “Skipping breakfast is never a good idea, but
even with a good breakfast and lunch, hunger pangs and stressdriven hunger can be distracting, leading to unhealthy snacking
habits.”
Roussell says pistachios are an ideal midmorning or
midafternoon snack because of their unique nutrient package that
not only promotes feelings of fullness and satiation, but also, newer
studies show, can promote an optimal mental state and more focus
at work.
Increasingly, people with desk jobs are looking for a healthier
snack alternative to the usual donuts and vending machine fare.
Ninety percent of the survey’s participants said they believe the
snack of pistachios is healthier than their usual snack. The study
involved office workers in the Northeast, South, Midwest and
Western U.S. who snack at their desk two or more times a week at
midmorning.

CHICAGO
- Lucky Plush
Productions
returns to
Chicago’s Harris
Theater in
Millennium
Park Thursday
and Friday,
April 26 and 27,
with Tab Show,
featuring two
works - Rink
Life and Curb
Candy - that
highlight the
company’s
signature blend
of layered choreography, witty dialogue, and
socially relevant storytelling.
Tab Show takes its name from an early
20th century short - or “tabloid” - version of a
musical comedy, usually performed alongside
other sampler-style entertainment as part of a
traveling road show.
Tab Show opens with Rink Life, a dance
theater work loosely inspired by classic roller
rink culture, where people seamlessly move
between anonymity and community, individual
stylings and group dynamics, movement and
song. The sound design is entirely generated
by the performers and builds upon disparate
fragments of information - partially overheard
conversations, musical scales, and pop-song
earworms. Rink Life builds upon Cadence, a
work that Lucky Plush artistic director Julia
Rhoads created for Hubbard Street Dance
Chicago in 2017 with music collaborator
Bethany Clearfield (Grant Park Chorus,

Chicago Symphony Chorus, and the band
Outertown).
The second act features Curb Candy, which
includes re-mixed excerpts from Lucky Plush
repertory presented in an entirely new work.
Look for favorite moments from the Lucky
Plush dance theater canon including Surrelium,
Endplay and Punk Yankees, performed by
Lucky Plush ensemble members Kara Brody,
Michel Rodriguez Cintra, Elizabeth Luse,
Rodolfo Sánchez Sarracino, Aaron R. White
and Meghann Wilkinson. Guest performers
Enid Smith, Jacinda Ratcliffe, and Ethan
Kirschbaum join the company for this special
performance.
Tab Show begins at 7:30 p.m. both nights.
Tickets are $25-$70. The Harris Theater for
Music and Dance is located at 205 E. Randolph
St. in Chicago’s Millennium Park. Purchase

FULL CASTING ANNOUNCED FOR A TASTE OF THINGS TO COME CHICAGO PREMIERE!
CHICAGO – Broadway In Chicago and the
producers of A TASTE OF THINGS TO COME
recently announced the full casting for A TASTE
OF THINGS TO COME, a slice-of-life original
musical comedy that makes its Chicago debut
at Broadway In Chicago’s Broadway Playhouse
at Water Tower Place (175 E. Chestnut) for a
limited six-week engagement March 20 through
April 29, 2018.
THE 1950s: It’s the beginning of rock n’ roll,
the racial barrier begins to crack, the Korean
War is over, and husbands are returning home.
Ronald Reagan is a model for Lifebuoy Soap
and Rock Hudson is “the World’s Most Eligible
Bachelor.”
And women are getting antsy.
Meet Joan, Connie, Dottie, and Agnes. Four
best friends living in Winnetka, IL. They meet

every Wednesday for a Betty Crocker cooking
contest, imagining how the prizes might change
their lives. Their weekly gathering isn’t just
about cooking, but a time to confide secrets and
share frustrations.
Usually, it’s LIFE Magazine that’s read
cover to cover in between mixing, sifting, and
chopping. However, a different kind of reading
material arrives. Shocked but inspired by the
Kinsey report, their lives take an interesting
turn.
A TASTE OF THINGS TO COME is a
fabulously fun romp tracing the changing lives
of these four Winnetka women from the 1950s to
the sexual revolution of the 1960s. This homage
to prior generations of women who blazed new
trails features a rollicking original score of ‘50s
and ‘60s music with great harmonies, all backed

CITIZEN / South End / Week of March 7, 2018 / 9

Founded in 1776, America’s Historic First Baptist Church
“Freedom Bell” Rings to Heal Racial Divide
WILLIAMSBURG, Va. - The Freedom Bell
at the First Baptist Church of Williamsburg, one
of the oldest African-American Baptist churches
in the United States, rang for the first time
since the days of Jim Crow and segregation in
February 2016. In 2016, President Obama rang
the bell to celebrate the historic grand opening
of the National Museum of African American
History and Culture. On Sunday, February 25th
the bell rang again to call attention to, and to
heal America’s racial divide after a tumultuous
year marked by violence, strife and protest in
Charlottesville, VA, scuffles at the University of
Virginia, and rallies across the nation.
The First Baptist Church of Williamsburg, lit
the way by calling on churches around the country
to bring awareness to what unites us, and appeal
for racial harmony during the 11’0clock church
service - traditionally the most segregated hour of
the week in American households.
“Our bell and our church are reminders of
our progress towards the pursuit of justice and
equality for all,” said Rev. Reginald F. Davis,
pastor of the First Baptist Church. “Martin Luther
King called for racial harmony from the pulpit
of this church. It’s important that we continue
his legacy and call on all Americans to heal racial
disharmony and strive for justice and equality, the
constitutional ideals that are the hallmark of our
democracy.”
On February 25th, the last Sunday of Black
History Month, the church spearheaded a yearlong
initiative to ignite inclusion and racial harmony
during the 11 o’clock hour. Led by Pastor Davis,
the day’s celebratory service invited Americans of
colors, faiths, and creed - young and old - to join

in celebration. Speaker and guest Pastor, Rev.
Travis Simone of the Williamsburg Community
Chapel highlighted the day’s ceremony with a
special sermon and the lauded College of William
& Mary Choir performed.
The church, recently designated as a National
US Historic site, commemorated the day with the
launch of the Let Freedom Ring Foundation. The
Foundation’s mission is to protect and preserve the
historic building and treasured historic artifacts
dating from 1776, and to maintain the recently
restored 1886 “Let Freedom Ring” bell. The
Potomac Valley Section of the National Council
of Negro Women (NCNW), founded by educator,
activist and civil rights leader Dr. Mary McLeod
Bethune, has pledged the first contribution of $10,
000 toward the work to conserve the church and
its deep rooted history.
“As the first elected President of the
Potomac Valley Section and lifetime member of
the NCNW, we are proud to support the First
Baptist Church of Williamsburg in preserving
our American history,” said Connie M. Harshaw.
“Our commitment to improve the lives of AfricanAmerican women, children and families has
reached across all racial, economic and social lines.
It seemed, at first to be an insurmountable task,
but when successful, it has helped communities all
across the nation to close the divide and to heal. In
the spirit of Dr. Dorothy Height and Mary McLeod
Bethune, we don’t always do what we want to do,
but we will do what we have to do in order to get it
done – it is the only way.”
Founded in secret by a group of enslaved
men and women in 1776, the First Baptist
Church in Williamsburg, Virginia, celebrated

its 240th anniversary in 2016. It is today one
of the country’s oldest African-American houses
of Baptist worship, and a symbol of the faith,
struggle, and perseverance that marks the black
experience in America. The First Baptist Church
— whose first members met under thatched
arbors in the woods — moved to a brick church
building before the Civil War and acquired a bell
in the late 19th century. Due to disrepair, the
500 pound bell remained inoperable through
the days of segregation and Jim Crow…unheard
throughout the tumult and progress of the civil
rights movement until 2016 when The Colonial
Williamsburg Foundation restored the bell to
working condition in time to challenge Americans
to “Let Freedom Ring” by ringing the church bell
throughout the day – every day – during Black
History Month 2016. Over 4,000 Americans rang
the famed Bell in Williamsburg, with more than 7
million ringing virtually online. The First Baptist
Church, now a designated National Historic
Landmark, and believed to be the first church in
the United States organized entirely by African
Americans, for African Americans, is a special
reminder of the history of African Americans.
Its renowned “Freedom Bell” continues to draw
visitors to ring the bell for peace, justice, harmony
and equality throughout the year.
A small number of black Baptist churches
can legitimately claim to be the oldest in America
— First African Baptist in Savannah, Ga., for
example, and Silver Bluff Baptist Church in
Jackson, S.C. However, First Baptist Church in
Williamsburg is believed to be the first black
Baptist church that was organized entirely by
African Americans.
